Should HR encourage exercise at work?

A healthy body enables employees to perform at their best. The link between the strength of our performance is irrefutable, according to Karen Gately. Workplaces should prioritise consistent exercise in order to have a healthy body and mind, as it is essential for peak work performance. People will perform at their best when they are mentally strong and engaged at work. Exercise isn't about being fit, it is about being heathly and having an improved mood and cognitive ability. In a perfect world, people should make their physical and mental healthy a priority but that won't happen without the support of those around them (HR).
